as I land and begin doing this adventure I will give you the run down of the best strategy to be able to do this mission with the least amount of losses and by doing this the quickest...

wohoo, cool, any update coming? like troop needed n going to loose, etc :p where's the captain pirate?

I lost 611 recruits, 32 cavalry, and 59 militia my estimation is if you don't want to throw away and cavalry or militia it will take 850-875 Recruits... I took the way out that cost less time... yes I lost a few horses and militia... but it was worth it to muscle through for this guide. and the fact that I had 200 militia and 150 cavalry just hanging around... if you don't want to throw away "valuables" then expect to lose at least 850 recruits...

The losses are pretty high considering the xp you get for it.

I don't see a point in doing this adventure. Better to do another or search for others, unless you are really desperate for the xp and have troops to burn.

I'm very curious as to why you sent the first wave of 130 Recruits and did not just one-wave this camp?

You could have sent 140 Recruits and 60 Militia and lost only 140R/7-20 Militia, and taken the camp in one wave?

because after you kill the sabrerattlers the crazy cook absorbs the damage before you damage any other troops... there is no way to do this with one wave... look at wave 2... I used MORE militia then you used in your estimation... WAVE 2!... that is without the 100 sabrerattlers... it would've have been a huge waste because even with your numbers... I wouldn't have killed the 100 sabre's and the cook... just a good way to waste 60 militia and 10 extra recruits for no reason at all
